  • I don’t see the lemmy model failing. So, as others, I think is more of a solution in search for a problem.

    In general I don’t see any reason to leave Lemmy right now.

    Also I don’t think things will keep simple with that model. I see a lot of underlying complexities that the current formula does not have.

    Maybe it would be a better to try that model on a fediverse area with less success than lemmy.

    Peertube is really struggling for instance. Not really on the developer side of things but on the content creators. Maybe a coop of content creators for peertube could me something that is needed on the fediverse.




  • Not really.

    Firstly they never said that they would turn him to the US. They said that they would turn him to a third country. And only if irrefutable evidence of his guilt were to be provided. And they said that the only would turn Bin Laden, not any other AlQaeda members.

    Algo this happened after they US started the bombings. Before the US attacked the Talibans refused to even talk about it. And they would probably just tried to make time to start a truce until Bin Laden left the country.

    So it was actually a fake proposal and only after their previous refusal started the bombings on Afghanistan.


  • I’m operating on the not so ignorant notion than the Taliban supported Al-Qaeda and its ways for decades, becoming a safe haven for Bin Laden and other terrorists.

    They had no issues with terrorism and supported the use of terrorism against the infidels.

    Being also targeted by other islamist terrorists doesn’t clean their history with support of international terrorism.



  • Counteroffer. We eliminate copyright laws all together. For anyone and everyone.

    Let move to a system in which we found the projects before their release. And once released they are available to everyone for free.

    Also let’s make a system where everyone can work a basic work like 20-30 hours a week and get a living wage and the rest of the time we can just produce art of any kind of thing for free to anyone as we’ll already had our needs covered and we won’t have the need to monetize every second of out existence.




  • Have you ever lived in a building block?

    I don’t know in other countries. In Spain we have horizontal property law, that means that a building block is managed by all it’s members. Probably the same in other countries but IDK.

    The thing is that it is a NIGHTMARE. We have not one, but two of the most famous spanish comedy shows are about how hellish building block communities are.

    I know cases were old people have to walk stairs everyday because other members of the block refuse to put an elevator. I wouldn’t want to know what would happen if a few buildings could just choose not to put plumbing, or not to put traffic lights.

    And if I’m correct the US equivalent would be this communities in the suburbs that make “law” that you cut your lawns at 3 inches tall exactly every sunday a 7:03 am, exactly. And become extremely anal to everyone complying to their ridiculous aesthetic ideas.

    People in small communities can be incredibly shitty. I feel like bigger communities tend to grant more rights to people and ensure those rights are applied.

    I cheated a little. As I’m employed by a public organization of the Spanish government. But it’s true that we achieved these conditions because we have massive Unions here in the public sector. We are currently threatening with a strike if the remove remote work (as they are threatening to remove it).
